Ineos Styrolutıon Nomınated As Fınalıst In Chemıcal Week Sustaınabılıty Awards 2020

INEOS Styrolution was nominated as a finalist based on its annual sustainability report, which
provides a comprehensive review of the company’s environmental, social and governance
(ESG) performance over the past year, and outlines the company’s strong commitment and
actions to transition to a circular and low-carbon economy.
INEOS Styrolution was particularly recognised for its sustainability programme that has evolved
significantly since it was established in 2014. Initially, the company concentrated its efforts on
optimising its portfolio and provide high quality, safe and durable styrenics products to
customers.

To address the increasing global challenges, the focus of the programme expanded to
developing circular solutions. This has significantly accelerated the company’s efforts to develop
post-consumer recycled products. Here the company has made significant steps forward with
the introduction of INEOS Styrolution ECO, its family of sustainable products. This includes 

Terluran® ECO, the company’s first ABS grades comprising post-consumer recycled material1,
and Styrolux® ECO and Styroflex® ECO made using renewable feedstock. The company also
achieved a breakthrough in 2019 by producing virgin polystyrene at lab-scale from previously
depolymerised material2 and is now focusing on producing this recycled polystyrene at
commercial scale.
INEOS Styrolution has also been awarded a platinum rating by EcoVadis due to its advanced
sustainability performance, ranking it in the top 1% of plastics manufacturers worldwide.
Petra Inghelbrecht, Global Sustainability Manager at INEOS Styrolution, comments: “Our
programme has a strong focus on innovation for circularity and value chain collaboration. Our
aim is to further shift towards low-carbon, circular polymers by reducing our greenhouse gas
emissions. We are very proud for being recognised for our efforts.”
